Duraclick EDC pencils

Let me know if I shouldn't post pencils here. I'm pretty sure the one on the left is olive wood.

there's no reason why you couldn't post these.

Thanks! It is "Show off your Pens!". I didn't know how pedantic people would get so wanted to give folks the benefit of the doubt

They're good kits based on first impressions. Easy to assemble. I'm scoring a dive meet this weekend so I'll have an excuse to use them

Both look wonderful to me. The Olive wood speaks for itself for it's grain , but I will come to the defense of the 'plain grain blank (maybe walnut or a darker mahogany). I really like/love wood; plain grain timbers don't bother me in the least - I appreciate the colors. So, your plain grain pen is great in my opinion. A burl - nope; an exotic - nope; beautiful for what it has to offer - priceless.

Very Nice. I really like those DuraClick kits. They remind me of some of the engineering mechanical pencils that we used where I worked. - Dave

I appreciate the kind words. No idea what kind of wood it is. Was in a box of blanks I picked up from somewhere.

Same. Old rotring pencils or my newer pentel graph gear with the knurling. The pens have a really nice weight to them. The pencils seem lighter

Well, it is the International Association of Penturners but I believe we all make the occasional pencil. It's really about posting your work.

I know. My comment was mostly tongue in cheek but the little bit of humor I have gets lost in translation to text.

Some communities I'm a part of take this kind of thing very seriously to the point where 10% of the posting is asking about where to post.

I do appreciate all the support I've been getting as a noob!

I think you and I may have studied english writing under the same people.
